Ford offers its biggest SUV in six trim levels, each of which can be further upgraded with at least a few options. We score the lineup at 8 out of 10 thanks to a big 12.0-inch touchscreen in base trim, plentiful options, and great standard features including crash-avoidance tech.
The base XL STX costs $57,420 to start, plus another $3,000 for four-wheel drive. It’s equipped with cloth trim, 18-inch alloy wheels, a 12.0-inch touchscreen, and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay compatibility. The long-wheelbase Max runs $2,000 more.
Those prices almost seem like a deal against the costlier Tahoe, but Ford forces buyers to step up to the XLT trim for north of $60,000 for a third row.
Ford includes a basic 3-year/36,000-mile warranty, too.
Which Ford Expedition should I buy?
The XLT serves as a good base, and to it we’d add the High option package that includes synthetic leather trim, a power-adjustable passenger’s seat, keyless entry, heated front seats and steering wheel, a power tailgate, and a wireless charging pad. Toss in trailer-towing gear and you’re looking at around $69,000 for a four-wheel-drive model.
The Limited’s 20-inch alloy wheels, leather seats, and big sunroof nudge the price up another $6,000 or so. It’s the gateway to the Stealth package with its power boost, though at nearly $81,000 to start, that’s one pricey big SUV.
How much is a fully loaded Ford Expedition?
The lineup crests $82,000 by the time you reach the rather fancy Expedition Platinum. It’s outfitted like a luxury SUV with its Bang & Olufsen audio, massaging front seats, and 15.5-inch touchscreen. Grab a long-wheelbase Expedition Platinum Max with four-wheel drive, BlueCruise, rear-seat entertainment, and a few other bits, and Ford will want about $97,000.
